Today marks the official tenth anniversary of that Sunset on the Beach where ABC premiered the two-hour pilot of LOST. And what an evening (and series) it was! Had the chance to say a few words in yesterday’s Star-Advertiser (not at my most profound), which was cool (thanks to a friend who also put together a crossword puzzle for the occasion). A few days ago I dug up the “loot” that ABC passed out that evening: pictures, postcards, license plate frames, and even a hand-held fan (that still works). It was a great beginning to a great show . . . one that has in many ways been emblematic of the best parts of life here on “the Island.”
The producers of the show put together a quick montage of the show’s run that aired recently at Comic-Con. Thought it would be worth sharing here. I’ll resume my “greatest hits” look at the series later in the week.
